Many of us are caught up in a never-ending search to find the one fail-safe technique that calms us down when stress and anxiety strike. Mindfulness, meditation, yoga, deep breathing - you’ve probably tried them all at some point. And yet, techniques to try and manage stress aren’t going to give you the answer you’re really looking for. The problem is that they’re tackling the symptoms of your stress (the insomnia, the crazy thoughts, the short temper) rather than the cause. Until you deal with the cause of stress, nothing’s ever going to change and all you can ever look forward to is temporary relief. In this short course, we’ll be challenging our ideas about what stress is and where it comes from and then you’ll be able to tap into the innate inner resilience and mental health we all possess and deal more calmly with any issues life can throw at us.
